1st and 3rd Friday of every month
12pm to 1pm
Where:
Virtually via Google Meet
Cost:
Sliding Scale $20- $40
I understand that folks with chronic pain and chronic illness may be less financially privileged, so in an effort to make group therapy accessible, I offer a few pro bono spots and a deep sliding scale.
Group Info:
This support group is a bi-weekly space to gather in community with others impacted by chronic pain and/or chronic illness to share experiences, learn coping and self-advocacy skills, and connect to resources. The group is open to adults residing in Washington state living with chronic pain or chronic illness (a diagnosis is not required). The group will be led by Hannah King, LMHCA, CRC, a therapist with lived experience with chronic pain and a passion for disability justice. We will discuss topics such as internalized ableism, self-compassion, disability accommodations, medical self-advocacy, and accepting limitations.
